In addition to a new iPhone, and iPods, Apple also unveiled a new set of headphones last week. Dubbed "EarPods," the company said that it spent more than three years developing the accessory.
Today, the team over at iFixit performed their usual teardown of the headphones, and published an extensive report of its findings. And as you can imagine, some of it is rather interesting...
Well, it looks like the photo of the iPhone 5 box we posted earlier today is definitely legit. This, after BGR posts what they claim to be the world's first iPhone 5 unboxing.
I always thought that unboxings were only for video, but I guess they can appear in photo form as well. We look forward to bringing you a video unboxing, but in the meantime, these shots are admittedly pretty mouth watering.
Someone sent this to me in an email just a few minutes ago.
This is, apparently, the box art for the new iPhone 5. How do you think it stacks up to previous box art?
Many of you have likely ran into this conundrum: Someone on your wireless plan is eligible for an upgrade, but couldn't care less about upgrading their phone. With this in mind, you'd like to use their upgrade to upgrade your phone.
I actually encountered this issue myself, but I wasn't quite sure how to proceed with it. If I upgraded my wife's phone, but planned to take her upgrade to use for myself, how would I get a Nano SIM card containing my information, and not hers?
This wouldn't be much of an issue if the iPhone 5 used the same Micro SIM as the iPhone 4S, otherwise, I'd just swap out my Micro SIM into the iPhone 5. But since the iPhone 5 uses a brand new SIM card, this obviously presents a problem.
How do you go about handling the issue? As it turns out, if you're an AT&T customer, it's probably a lot easier than you might have expected...
Perhaps Samsung was overly confident in nice numbers its flagship Galaxy SIII handset's been putting or maybe its silly anti-iPhone newspaper ad has backfired, but the South Korean conglomerate appears to have found itself on the receiving end this time around.
A trivial question posted on Samsung Mobile's official Facebook page has produced a ton of unexpected answers favoring Apple's new iPhone 5. Rubbing salt into wound, an unrelated survey has also revealed that nearly a whopping two-thirds of polled users in Australia are considering to jump ship because they are lusting after the iPhone 5...
If you've ever seen your local news station report about Apple products, or other tech-related topics, you know it isn't always the best coverage. Let's just say, technology isn't really their strength.
That was once again confirmed last night, as Fox 5 News in New York inaccurately reported on the iPhone 5 and its features, claiming Apple's new handset has a "laser keyboard and holographic images..."
When Apple unveiled its new smartphone last week, it also announced some changes to its iPhone lineup. For starters, the 16GB iPhone 4S is going to drop to just $99 with a two year contract.
In addition, the company is also getting rid of the 3GS, making the iPhone 4 its $0 offering. But according to some new information, it doesn't look like all providers are going to carry it...
Earlier today, AT&T announced that it set a sales record over the weekend with iPhone 5 pre-orders. Apple also had a record-breaking weekend, recording 2 million iPhone 5 pre-orders in just 24 hours.
Well apparently the early success of Apple's new handset has given investors a boost in confidence in the Cupertino company, as its stock crossed the $700 mark today in after-hours trading...
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and for that reason, let me preface this post with a disclaimer: I'm not bashing anyone's right to an opinion. That's one of the things that makes life so great, differing points of view on all sorts of matters.
Apparently, whoever posted this post on the Big Boss blog isn't too high on iOS 6, in fact, they go as far as to label it a "dud."
I certainly don't feel that way; I'm the complete opposite. That made me think, do most jailbreakers feel this way about iOS 6? Are many of you guys and gals planning on staying right where you are on iOS 5 until a jailbreak is released for iOS 6?
We’re counting down the remaining days until the official iPhone 5 launch and if analysts' estimates and pre-orders are anything to go by, we’re looking to a massive release that should/will easily dwarf any other consumer electronics announcement in 2012.
As part of its preparations for the D-day, the company has provided its retailers with training materials in order to get sales reps up to speed ahead of Friday's launch of the "boring" handset.
A pair of documents iDB has exclusively obtained communicate eight key messages: thinnest and lightest iPhone, four-inch Retina display, ultrafast wireless, the A6 chip, an eight-megapixel iSight camera on the back, all-new EarPods and improved audio, the new Lightning connector and of course iOS 6 and iCloud....
Starting with the iPhone 5, Apple is going to be changing the dock connectors in all of its future iOS products. The new Lightning plug will be replacing the decade-old 30-pin connector.
Worried that all of your old speaker docks will become obsolete? Don't be. You can either purchase a 30-pin to Lightning adapter, which Apple sells for $29, or you can grab the auris...
The iPhone 5 goes on sale this Friday in the United States and eight more major markets overseas, hitting an additional 22 countries next Friday. So far, customer response completely blew Apple away as the handset became AT&T's and Apple's fastest-selling iPhone.
With a little more than four days until launch, Piper Jaffray's resident Apple analyst Gene Munster issued a note to clients, predicting sales of at least six million units during the opening weekend, possibly up to ten million units.
Munster previously said the iPhone 5 would go down in history as the most successful consumer electronics launch and compared other smartphones to Timexes, with the iPhone 5 being the Rolex of smartphones...
